Smile the bridge in lost valley

Hi everyone!! You probably already know this but in the official screenshot. set it as the wallpaper on your desktop and in a certain light the broken bridge becomes clear. do you think they will place a cog on the other side or would it be too easy to assume that. CD will change the location of the cogs allowing us to explore different areas to find them. anyway the bridge is def there!!

I think they'll change the locations of the cogs - perhaps give us another cave to explore over the other side of the bridge?

(Notice the bold word there CD, it's very important.)

Anyone else think the gap between the bridge might be too long for L Lara jumps? Or just close enough for her to do one of those gliding leaps where she flaps about a bit and grabs on and we have to tap a button to steady her?

Hopefully, if there is a button prompt, it will flash and vanish, giving Lara about only a second to be saved.

I think her jumps will be longer than Legend's but shorter than the classics, which to me could not be better.

I could live with it if they were bigger than legend's jumps, easily

I seriously hope the button prompt doesn't appear, but alas, I think that hope is truly futile.

I'm sure I read something about a 'magnet grapple' in the magazine article...

NO TO BUTTON PROMPTS....

WE (the player) should be able to see when lara is struggling and press the relevant button...

The animation of her 'struggling' should be sufficient....

NO NO NO NO NO NO to horrible arcade-y atmosphere-killing patronising onscreen button promts/tips/advice...whatever you call it !!!!

@ riv's dig at CD needing to give us EXPLORING (hint, hint)

i tried to clear up the bridge a little bit so we could get a decent look at the gap. this was the best i could do. i dunno. looks pretty far.
